[foxxkat]

hi everyone!
first off.. i'm a noob. juz got a tank 2weeks back without knowing much (and i really mean not knowing much).. now trying to catch up.

read a lot abt ph/kh to determine CO2 level.. i hav a small planted tank (abt 1foot) using nutrafin CO2 system. wat do i need to get the ph/kh reading so to determine the co2 level? i don even kno wat's a ph/kh anyway. is it som gadget? if i go to my neighbourhood fish shop and tell them i want ph/kh dono they kno wat tok me or not

And then, get yourself a good test kit for kH and pH. I'd say maybe the brand Aquarium Phareamticals will be good enough ( since quite alot say so, and I use it myself )

Then, go to http://www.aquaticquotient.com/aq_ca...dex.php?page=2

and check ur c02.
